Benefits of technology

The present disclosure provides a novel writing device that is efficient and effective. It is designed in the shape of a banana and includes a body, lead, stem, peel, and metal clip. The body is connected to the stem and surrounds the lead. The soft peel surrounds the body for protection and provides comfortable finger-positioning for use. The technical effects of this new device include improved efficiency, convenience, and comfort for users.

Problems solved by technology

In many cases a pencil may prove difficult to hold and often requires a separate device to sharpen the pencil.
A pencil may be hard to hold because they are typically thin and made of a rigid material.
This lends to them not being very ergonomic for prolonged use and may cause finger pain if the user holds the pencil in a very firm grip.
These devices often have a sharp blade in them which makes sharpening a pencil potentially dangerous.
Further, it is tedious to keep a sharpening device with the user while using a pencil.
A traditional pencil is also very plain looking and not very much fun to use.
This can cause children to not want to use the pencil.
This can make it difficult to teach the child to write.
The thin size can also add to the difficulty for a child to hold and therefore, an additional grip may be necessary.
